TLDR : Answer Summary
The processing time for a Thai girlfriend to obtain a German tourist visa, known as a Schengen visa, can vary. However, it generally takes about 2 weeks to process once the required paperwork is submitted. Important factors include proving a genuine relationship, having a stable job in Thailand, providing financial proof, and booking round-trip flights. The application must be submitted at the German Embassy in Thailand after filling out the necessary forms, and applicants should take into consideration any changes due to COVID-19 protocols.

more Dutch men marry Thai women than other countries

I know 9 friends in Chiangmai with Thai brides, or future.
Rogerio ******
@Steve *********
no offense but that could be just that Dutch men are more marriage centric that other nations. I recall going to Tromso in northern Norway and finding several Thai massage places.. seemed like a lot of Norwegians married Thai women too.🤷🏻‍♂️

2 weeks after appointment once you have all the required paperwork for the embassy

I used Chang visa in Pattaya for my Wife’s first holiday visa ! You’d be better going for the Visitor visa it’s expensive for all visas but a holiday visa is only for 6 months

Also bei meiner Freundin ging das recht zügig und unkompliziert.

Im Vorfeld hatte ich zwei Einladungsschreiben an die Deutsche Botschaft in Bangkok formuliert (1x auf Deutsch und 1x auf Englisch). Habe zudem Kopien meines Reisepasses (mit allen Reisestempeln) und meines Personalausweises sowie Nachweise über mein Einkommen geschickt.

Dazu hat meine Freundin Belege zu ihrem eigenen Einkommen, Nachweis über Sparguthaben, einer Auslandskranken-Versicherung und ihren Reisepass eingereicht.

Dazu musste sie zu einem zentralen Büro VFS in Bangkok.

Diese Geschichte mit der „offiziellen“ Einladung über die Ausländerbehörde in Deutschland war mir zu blöd. Kostet Geld, Du musst Dich in Deutschland „fast“ komplett nackt machen.

Blöd wäre halt nur, wenn Deine Freundin eben nix im Hintergrund hat (kein Einkommen, keine Ersparnisse), dann wird’s kompliziert.

Ach ja, und SIE sollte ein Besuchs-Visum beantragen, nicht Touristen-Visum, sonst wird’s aktuell abgelehnt.

few thai girls with farangs sponsors have savings or property, that's why farang.

I said few, not all !

RALPH. fill out request form on internet. 95% can be on line.

She needs to request as well with background, if worked in bar, say restraunt.

You need show copy of financial showing you will be financially responsible.

Copy of her PP, if doesnt have one easy to obtain

Appt with German or EU Embassy in Bkk.for interview.

Interview can be same day as flight, and will expedite.

These are PRE-COVID. Now your Embassy will have to guild you on shots, etc.

DONT LET HER TELL YOU SHE NEEDS BAHT IN HER ACCOUNT TO FLY.

@Steve *********
What is an "EU Embassy"? She wants to enter Germany first, so the German Embassy in BKK is the right point of contact.

@Ekkehard ******
I guessing Steve is thinking Schengen?
Steve **********
@Seán ******
exactly Sean. I did it for a friend once. But with Brexit and all, didnt know if schengen still the term.
Ekkehard *******
@Steve *********
The Schengen-Visum of course still exists and is unaffected by Brexit. Also before the Brexit, the Schengen-Visum was not valid for entering the United Kingdom.

If your lexicon is limited, check your words BREFORE you use them: "Führer is a German word meaning "leader" or "guide". As a political title it is associated with the Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler. Nazi Germany cultivated the Führerprinzip, and Hitler was generally known as just der Führer." Wikipedia

$$$ VFS. Not guarantee better if she has job to return to
Martin *********
@John *******
.. yup.

They usually look for reasons for her to return.

Large amount of money in a bank but no reason to return will often end in tears...

It takes about 2 weeks to get a Schengen visa, but you must be able to prove that you have known her for more than one year and met with her in person (typically in Thailand).

Nicht einfach. Bei der Ausländerbehörde eine Verpflichtungserklärung machen, Bürgschaft. Feste Einkünfte und Vermögen müssen vom Antragsteller also Dir nachgewiesen werden. Dazu eine Krankenversicherung für Sie über die Zeit hier abschließen. Maximaler Aufenthalt 3 Monate ohne Erwerbstätigkeit.

Dazu muss Hin und Rückflug gebucht und bezahlt sein.

Die Thai Frau muss dann auf der deutschen Botschaft Bangkok den Antrag stellen. Und dort wird entschieden. Je nach Laune ja oder nein.

Für das Geld fliegst Du besser nach Thailand.

I'm not concerned that you have no sense of humour. That is your problem.

It is the belief of the ignorant masquerading as humor!

I have a sense of humour. This is just not funny in any way.

It’s the humour of a 5 year old or the equivalent brain function.

I’m not 5.

on the internet people say things. You may not like it, but they do and there is no need to whine for an admin. Seems it’s your first day and you must not know that, so I welcomed you.

@Rob *****
Thanks for the welcome and words of wisdom, but, NAZI HUMOR should NEVER be tolerated.irst day
Rob ******
@John *******
didn’t seem as he supports Nazi’s or their ideals and actions. Just more of a smartass joke about Germany. To each their own, but being upset on a grey area at best remark is overboard. Good luck to you, the world is not a kind place.
John ****************
@Rob *****
There is NO 'grey area' when you mention NAZI GE = any admin worth a shit would KNOW THAT. And your foolish memes are beyond stupid... write your own material or get the hell off///
